Hi, searched these infos in the manual but didn't found....

1) is the oem charger a smart one? I mean can i let it pluged for several hours (like when i sleep) and it stops charging when the battery is full without problems?

2) does the battery have memory? Can i charge it when it is 40-50% left charge in it without shortening it's capacity to hold a charge?

I have the phone since 3-4 months now and i begin to notice the battery isn't holding charge as long as before. I'm still able to last 3-4 days without a charge but when i use the music player it seems to drain faster.

1. the phone itself automatically stops the phone from charging when it is already fully charged.

2. according to some threads that i have read yes it does., for more info check this: http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=5503 (thanks to orang3)

wow...your battery is pretty strong., my phone with regular use only last for 2 1/2 days., it is normal for a battery to drain faster if your running applications(multi tasking), music player, and bluetooth.
you can always find one if you know where to look

i myself

Huh i haven'T been clear... i know that multitasking drain the battery faster of course... what i meant was that before, listening to an album took maybe 5% or charge, now it's more like 10-12%.

When i do the same thing as before the battery drain faster, that is.

But thanks for your answer about the charger
